March Madness - Weather Edition

March Madness is here with the MPSSAA Tournament moving into the regional quarterfinal round beginning March 2. It's also here with the arrival of a winter storm that is predicted by people with alleged degrees in meteorology to dump anywhere from 3 to 10 inches of snow in Baltimore and Anne Arundel counties. Who knows?

What we do know is that the MPSSAA has posted the following statement on its Web site (www.mpssaa.org) with respect to the weather and the tournament schedule. Boys' games are scheduled for March 2, "weather permitting." Girls' games are scheduled for March 3. Here is the rest of the statement:

"Please note postponed regional basketball games shall be made up on the next available date. All games shall be played on consecutive days until teams are able to resume playing on the originally established schedule."

If you are working on the floor or as the table official for MPSSAA regional quarterfinal games, be sure to check the media for school closings and your e-mail/The Arbiter frequently for rescheduled games. Stay in touch with your partners.
